Inside the Volkswagen Passat, the procedure to reset the Service light requires you to press and hold the SET button located on the right side of the instrument cluster while the cluster is off. With the button held down, turn on the instrument cluster using the ignition key; this will display a message asking if you want to reset the Service light.

Confirm the message by pressing the OK button on the right side of the steering wheel.

This will successfully reset the Service light, and you must then switch off and restart the instrument cluster to complete the procedure.
